Bab 595: Coppa Italia in the Bag

The score was then 3:0 in favor of Juventus. But that didn't stop the Juventus players from continuing their relentless attacks. They cornered Lazio over the following few minutes to create many chances that almost resulted in goals.

The main highlight was when Fernando Llorente connected with a well-taken corner kick to plant a goalward header from close to the near post during the 39th minute. However, Etrit Berisha, the on-form Lazio keeper, was alert again and managed to push the effort out of play for another corner-kick.

Stephan Lichtsteiner, the Juventus right wing-back, quickly took the resulting corner-kick and sent a curling cross towards the box.

Zachary went into action again to meet the incoming ball. He escaped the harassment of his marker before rising from the ground and producing another fine header a few meters away from the far post. But luck wasn't on his side that time, and his effort smashed off the post before bouncing in the box.
